Twitter is continuing its crackdown on fake and bot controlled accounts, with more than 70million suspended between May and June.

This is triple the amount of suspicious accounts deleted the year previously and is clear demonstration of twitter’s efforts to restore its reputation from accusations surrounding Russian bot activity in many elections.

Twitter has advised all users that even though some accounts may notice a drop in follower numbers as a result of this strict crackdown, cleaning up the twitter community and ensuring authentic engagement is its first priority.
